CZU Leads the Way: Hynek Roubík on the Objectives of BIO-CAPITAL
What does it take to coordinate a European research project tackling one of the most urgent challenges of our time - the financing of biodiversity? In a short interview as part of the BIO-CAPITAL project "Meet the BIO-CAPITAL Team" video series, BRT Director Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hynek Roubík, shares his perspective on the project's ambitions and his role.
Representing the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU), BIO-CAPITAL Project Coordinator Hynek Roubík explains that his coordination role is all about ensuring the smooth and timely delivery of work across a diverse, international consortium. But it’s the broader vision of the project that stands out.
“Our project is very ambitious, we are putting together a lot of different fields... and making tangible outcomes that will shape the approach to biodiversity and mobilize investment possibilities.” - Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hynek Roubík
From cross-sector collaboration to actionable outcomes, Hynek Roubík emphasizes that BIO-CAPITAL is not just about research - it's about real-world impact. The project aims to bridge science, policy, and finance to unlock new ways of protecting and enhancing biodiversity in Europe.
